Comment on how much power do i need to run a coffee machine from a mobile van? by Pat

The Coffee pot should tell you the wattage on it chances are about 1500 to 1800 watts and then a Small fridge could run as much as 500 watts more after start up. I do not think that a 1500 watt generator would work for you more on the lines of 2000 watt or 2.5 kw generator or even a 2000 watt converter and a small 1500 watt generator would do

Good Luck

I do not know.But,you could use a thing from Home Depot that uses wires to tell you how much power something uses.Plus,I doubt your business is going to make it anywhere unless you make good coffee.Ever heard of Starbucks???Or Dunkin Doughnuts???Also,you could use the van radio.

Comment on Coffee aficionados: What brand of coffee do you buy for brewing at home? Do you have a grinder? And what…? by Glenn_11

I like to buy fresh roasted coffee beans online from Willoughby’s Coffee or from Terroir Coffee and grind them at home in a coffee grinder (burr grinder not a blade grinder)

I use a Technivorm drip brewer that brews coffee at the proper temperature of 200 degrees.

If you are looking for good coffee here is a good place for info:

I often wonder why coffee tastes so good when you drink it at someone elses house. But…I had a 12-cup. I’d try different brands and flavors all the time. I was one in Orlando once and went to a coffee place called BadAss liked the flavor, but thought the name was pretty cool. I like a strong coffee with good flavor and the buzz is nice too!!!

I tend to buy Starbuck’s, given their variety and consistency. I like multiple geographic coffee’s, like Kona (hard to find), Kenya AA, Sulawesi, New Guinea Peabody, Guatemala and Ethiopia has had some good stuff. I’ll take it dark roasted most consistently.

Seattle’s Best sells good beans too.

I’ll brew it in a standard drip pot, or espresso, most often. The French Press is a good method, but the stuff cools off quicker than I’d like, so not as often. The stove top can produce good ‘espresso’, though it is likely double strength, and not truly capturing the nectar’s gold, but is a good way to go too.

If you don’t have good beans, no method will make a good cup - you just have to add lots of 1/2 and 1/2.

I buy store roasted beans and grind at home. Then I use fresh, filtered water and a coffee machine for a regular brew or an espresso machine for espresso drinks. However, usually the beans are only the beginning. You can add a little of a number of spices - individually or a blend - to give your coffee a delicious and unique flavor. Try green cardamom, coriander seed, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, anise, chili powder (?!?!?!). Put a bit of these in with the beans when you grind and fall in love with coffee all over again!
